A relative of mine bought a house in central Illinois for $90k a few years ago. She's a single mom and works as a bank teller.
There are plenty of places that can be afforded on a single income if you work in tech and can work remotely.

- jacquesm 6mo agoBanks still have tellers?
- stephenbez 6mo agoOr at least some customer service people who are in the branches.
- metalman 6mo agoWorse. Some people even deleet all of there online banking, except, for an account that can recieve funds from online sources, and then deal with everything in person at the bank. Which then frees up devices to skip the whole closed source misery go round.
- jacquesm 6mo agoHere in NL you can't and there is this massive push to get a smartphone and a banking app. Hardware attestation coming to a device near you soon.
- ryandrake 6mo agoI would never use a bank that required a smartphone in order to access your money or do normal banking activities like transfers and payments. Fortunately here in the USA there are thousands of little mom n pop banks and credit unions, so I think we are safe from that madness at least until I’m dead and buried.
